Hello all,
I'm an IT manager in a small business company.
We are looking for a robust and flexible open source FIX engine:
we think Quickfix could be the best choice, but we have some critical
doubts:
1) In the next month, we are interesting to develop a FIX framework (for
.NET platform) that supports
also FIX 5.0 and FAST FIX protocol specifications, but it seems that QF
supports only FIX 4.0 - 4.4 protocols.
Moreover, we saw that the last stable release (1.12.4) came out on
September, 2006.
When is planned a new stable release? Will it include also FIX5/FAST
support?
2) Is QF library fully .NET 3.5 compatible? Are there any known issues
regarding that platform?
QF Source code include only .NET 1.1/2.0 VS solution file.
3) Are there any critical issues (eg high performance or memory
degradations) using QF on very large
amount of market data (more 100,000 orders/hour in production
environment)?
Your replies are extremely important in order to know if QF is suitable for
our system.
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Matteo Bisi
